    My old $40 LOREX System is BETTER than my New $3000 LOREX System!

    Switch Only Recognizes 3 out of 4 Cameras. I Think?

    I think I posted this in the wrong forum before so I decided to post it here. First of all I didn't realized LOREX and Dahua were the same thing so here's my predicament. I installed a LOREX Nocturnal 4K 16-Channel 4TB Wired NVR System with 12 Smart IP Dome Cameras wired directly to the NVR and...

    Problems with LOREX Nocturnal 4K 16-Cam System after Power Surge

    My Lorex Nocturnal 4K 16-Channel 4TB Wired NVR System with Smart IP Dome Cameras encountered a problem after a "power surge". I have power surge in quotation marks because I'm not 100% sure that's what caused the problem but that's what I was told from a not so reliable source, lol. The problem...

    Confusing POE Related Question?

    Ok, all 16 of my cameras work on the monitor and look great. On the Channel Status page of the NVR I have all green lights on all 16 cameras in the status column, all looking good, but in the POE Manager page of the NVR it shows the cameras hooked up to the POE switch, cameras 10, 11, 12 & 13...

    Are Most Routers POE Compatible?

After researching online for days I came across a site saying common everyday routers are not POE compatible? If so then I think I just...

    No Uplink Port on POE Switch? Huh?

    Originally I bought a 5 port POE switch that put out 55 watts, link below, it has 4 normal ports and a uplink port. Someone convinced me that this switch was not powerful enough to power 4 of my cameras. So I reluctantly bought an 8 port POE switch that has 123 watts, link below, but I didn't...

    Ethernet, POE, Gigabit Switch, Which One Do I Need?

    I'm thoroughly confused! on installing my 16 ch NVR system. II need to run 8 ethernet cables underground but the pipe diameter is to small to pull all 8 cables through. I was told I needed a 4 port Gigabit switch to reduce the number of cables going into the pipe from 8 cables to 5 cables, that...

    Swann NHD-865MSB POE Connector Pinout?

    Water had gotten into the RJ45 connector on my Swann NHD-865MSB POE camera and corroded the pins. The only way to keep using the camera was to cut off the RJ45 connector and hardwire the camera straight to the ethernet cable. Follow me so far? My issue is not knowing what color wires from the...
